Darkness into Light

I haven't made a masculine card in ages. I think like a lot of you, I find it easier to create when I can play with flowers and ribbon and scallops and bling.. ooh, and pink! You know the girly stuff!

I've been drooling over some of the cards I've seen that were made using the beautiful stamps from Our Daily Bread Designs. Their sets are so inspiring. I used the Keep my Lamp Burning set for this card.

I did a lot of inking here and I do mean a lot. LOL! The papers are older (think 3 or more years old) Diane's Daughters and the small brass embellishments are from KandiCorp.

Thanks for checking in!






It's all about the details:
Card stock: Bazzill
Patterned Paper: Diane's Daughters

Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs
Ink: Distress Ink
Accessories: Dimensionals, Ribbon, KandiCorp brass embellishments, SU hardware
Tools: Ranger Distresser
